The Liberals have a "Thinkers Conference" and get spanked

The Liberals have a "Thinkers Conference" and get spanked (3)

When a political party calls conference attendees "thinkers" then there is a question whether they are being arrogant or delusional, or both. The keynote speaker at the Grit conference at the end of last month was former UN Ambassador, deputy minister who was held captive for several months by al-Qaida, Robert Fowler.

After thanking Prime Minister Stephen Harper for saving his life, Fowler proceeded to lambaste the Tory government. There’s gratitude for you.

Come on Adu. This isn't reporting. It's barely even a Tweet. Not that I like Fowler, but you're expressing your own true blue opinion here and trying to pass it off as some sort of "news brief". You should know better than that if you want anyone to keep taking you seriously.
Also - Fowler wasn't the keynote, he was a panelist at the conference. And to be fair, he also lambasted the Grits - so I guess they're all out lunch when it comes to foreign policy.

[i]Methinks? Methinks??[i] I believe that anyone, who attempts to show the hallmarks of erudition through the dubious usage of words and forms that originated before Lembitu was born, is the arrogant one. And yes, out of touch and perhaps even delusional. But educated? Forgive me, if I express sincere doubts on that point.

Methinks that it is the Tory government and their supporters who are out of touch with reality, arrogant and delusional. Harper is not worthy of our confidence !
